IIRC, One of the Gang of Four was the project manager of what became Eclipse afterwards. That and the rest of the environment brought a fair share of bad design choices. Have you ever tried cooying an Eclipse workspace in a different direct

It's ugly but I updated just a few minutes ago, although the patch has been available for 16 hours. The thing is, `drush up` did not show available updates for me yesterday, and I was hesitating between going to bed and manually applyi

Hm... Women make most of purchase decisions in households but founders are mostly men. Something does not match up.

If I post a comment, and a dozen people comment on my comment do I have the moral right to delete my comment? In most cases, the answer should be a big NO. A deletion of a parent comment breaks the flow of discussion. Unless a service makes

I once heard a joke about a team in an unnamed bank that was interfacing with the mainframe using the latest and greatest JavaScript framework of the time. Once they were full speed in production, bug reports started to pop up. They tried s

Looking at the name... blockchain or chain of blocks... or a queue in CompSci speak... is less complex than git. Git is a directed acyclic graph.

A sheer number of Lithuanians participated in The Revolution. Who invaded whom is questionable. Especially in the light of Lithuanuan Duchy expansion some 200 years before.

A kind of enlightened antisemitism I see lately from Israeli citisens and EU nnationals sets aside nationalism and heredity as counter productive.

Signal asks for so many permissions that I am afraid Marvin is on the NSA hook.

An ice skater programme does not use the music as is. The music is edited one way or another to fit the time allocated for the programme. Sometimes a skater uses two or more pieces of music mixed together. I do not know about the Olympics b

It does not, but indeed I was referring to the music used in the skating programme.

There are many hazards in Russia even for the most powerful oligarchs. Remember Berezovsky or Khodorkovsky.

Automated filters on content sharing platforms kill creativity. Entire sports disappear from Youtube because they are traditionally accompanied by music. Think of ice skating. It's been years since I stopped uploading videos of ice sk

Some powerful Russian oligarchs permanently live with in UK: Abramovich and Usmanov come to mind first. Former oligarchs like Khodorkovski and Chichvarkin should not be expelled, of course.

Sending off diplomats won't hurt Putin as much as sending off McMafia style oligarchs. Unfortunately UK has no guts to do it.

It is a bit too late, but I just stubled upon a mini-series documentary by Leonid Parfenov about Russian Jews. As Parfenov points out, Russian Empire and then Soviet Union and contemporary Russian went over periods of both antisemitism and

I wonder why none makes decent ARM linux laptops. The market is ripe for disruption after Apple turned off developers with their latest Macbook Pro offerings.

Bullshit right in the first paragraph. Women snipers, women tank drivers, women pilots were not uncommon in USSR during the second world war. Half of the lawyers were women in USSR by 1980, although the comparison to US would be meaningless

Utter crap, look at their source code. Lucene, on the other hand, is really good.

You need to go deeper and use AnalyzingSuggester from Lucene. It is as fast as it gets. Also, do not forget about the web part of the equation. Using HTTP/2 helps, as well as disabling buffering all the way through.
